REDDITCH student Richard White doubled his Paralympic tally with bronze in the 100m.
The NEW College student who finished on the podium in his weaker 200m made it two bronzes over the shorter distance in Sydney.
The 18-year-old sprinter, who has a learning disability and slight cerebral palsy came in behind Great Britain team mate Lloyd Upsdell and Frenchman Hugues Quiatol.
And it was a nailbiting finish for the Bromsgrove youngster as his family, in the stands, and fellow students in Redditch, cheered him to the line.
White, a seasoned competitor at international level, came within an ace of the silver medal, finishing just 0.01sec behind the Frenchman.
